3900AST_3904AST_3907AST —Page 5 —08/18
Tools Required: Phillips screwdriver, 7/16" open end or box end wrench.
Tool Provided: Z shaped Hex Wrench attached to the back right leg of the Headboard. See
Figure 7b.
NOTE: Remove this instruction from the Headboard Kit carton. Place Headboard and attached
hardware kit to the side (possibly in another room) to allow space for assembling the platform
portion of the bed. Open the #3903 Platform Connector Kit, which attaches the two Platforms
together.
1. Open and unfold the Platform Kit carton in the approximate location where the bed will be
placed. This will help protect the flooring and the faces of the platform components. Place the
Headboard Platform Assembly (K) face down in the approximate location where the headboard
will be located with the inside edge facing the End Platform Assembly (J). Align the Dowels (P)
in the edge of the Headboard Platform Assembly (K) with the holes in the edge of the End
Platform Assembly (J) see Figures 1 and 1a.

7. NOTE: When completing step 7 you may wish to place your mattress onto the Bed to use as a
visual reference while adjusting the Headboard Height.
The Headboard for this bed is adjustable. It can be raised or lowered depending on the
thickness of your mattress. The holes for adjusting the height are numbered on the back of the
headboard legs. The chart below provides suggested settings based on the thickness of your
mattress. It also lists the overall height of the headboard at each setting. You may choose a
different setting for a variety of reasons. Individual preference, the number and thickness of
pillows on your bed, or the presence of a window or artwork above the Headboard are some of
the factors that might lead you to select a different setting than the one we have suggested. To
adjust the setting of the headboard use the Hex wrench (I) provided to remove the 5/16" X
35mm Bolts (G) attaching the Headboard to the Legs of the Headboard. Reposition the
Headboard so that the insert nuts in the back line up to the numbered holes that correspond to
the height you desire. Reinsert the bolts. See Figures 7 and 7a.
